2022 is the year of the Yellow Emperor 4719; Another scholar thinks that the starting point of the Yellow Emperor's calendar is 2997 BC. According to this statement, 2022 is the Yellow Emperor's 50 19 year.

Before, there were mainly two kinds of chronologies, one was the chronology of branches and the other was the chronology of year numbers.

The so-called chronology of trunk and branch refers to sixty different combination names of ten-day trunk (A Zhi Gui) and twelve-day trunk (Zi Zhi Hai) to represent different years. Such as: Jiazi Year, the Reform Movement of 1898, and Gengzi Year. ...

The year number method is to record the year with the year number established when each emperor was in office; For example, the sixth year of Hongwu and the first year of Daoguang. ...

These two chronologies were first implemented in the Han Dynasty. Because of the chronology of cadres and party branches, a year with the same name will appear every 60 years; In order to distinguish, the branch and the year number are often used together, such as "Jiaqing three years, the year is in Wuwu".

This situation lasted for nearly two thousand years, and it was not until 19 12 that the internationally accepted Gregorian calendar was introduced into China. Thus, the name "Spring Festival" appeared in festivals of China people.

Since then, the traditional New Year's Day in China has become the "Spring Festival", and the Gregorian calendar 1 day replaces the first day of the first lunar month and becomes New Year's Day.
